James Worthy drops the F bomb asking referee for a call

When it comes to NBA legends, James Worthy is a name that isn’t mentioned as much as it should be. Since 2008, the NBA fans have had an obsession with “Big 3’s.” The most notable ones are the Boston Celtics and Miami Heat. Fans treat that like it’s something new, but “Big 3’s” are common in the NBA. In the 1980s, the Los Angeles Lakers had a core “Big 3.” Magic Johnson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and James Worthy won five titles for the Lakers, in the 1980s.

Magic Johnson was the star of the show, but James Worthy was no slouch. James Worthy was once regarded as the NBA’s best number two option. However, Scottie Pippen’s notoriety ended up erasing Worthy from memory. But, James Worthy did something most NBA sidekicks never do. In 1988, Magic Johnson led the Lakers back to the NBA Finals. It was James Worthy who win Finals MVP, though, as the Lakers edged the Detroit Pistons in seven games.

Tonight, the Lakers/Pistons rivalry has been reignited. The NBA’s Rising Stars Challenge is taking place. It features James Worthy and Isiah Thomas as opposing coaches. Early in the game, James Worthy casually walked over to the ref, and dropped the F bomb while complaining over calls. Not long afterward, James Worthy got the call.
